Establishes human trafficking prosecution units and mandates wire transmission fees to fund the office combating human trafficking.
The bill establishes two human trafficking prosecution units within the Department of Justice. These units, staffed by multidisciplinary teams, will identify, investigate, and prosecute human trafficking cases, and provide care and support for victims. One unit will serve the western half of the state, and the other will serve the eastern half. Additionally, the bill mandates wire transmission fees to be collected by money transfer service providers and remitted to the Department of Revenue, which will then transfer the funds to the office combating human trafficking.
